Background: The piRNA pathway has been shown in model organisms to be involved in silencing of transposons thereby providing genome stability. In D. melanogaster the majority of piRNAs map to these se
The genome of Aedes albopictus was sequenced using long read sequencing approaches (PacBio and Hi-C) starting from DNA of 2 pools of 40 mosquitoes each. We generated 82 Gb of PacBio and 135 Gb of Hi-C
